[0030] like Figure 1As shown, a tool box 100 is used to store screwdriver bits. The tool box 100 includes: a first shell 11 and a second shell 12. The second shell 12 is hingedly connected to the first shell 11, so that the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 can be relatively close to or away from each other to adjust the tool box 100 to switch between an open position and a closed position. The first shell 11 and the second shell 12 respectively include a bottom wall 13, and a side wall 14 extending from the bottom wall 13 and surrounding the bottom wall 13. The side wall 14 is substantially perpendicular to the bottom wall 13, and the side wall 14 and the bottom wall 13 form an internal receiving chamber for receiving a screwdriver bit. The side wall 14 includes a pair of long side walls 141 and a pair of short side walls 142.

[0031] The tool box 100 further includes a plurality of pairs of retainers 2. The retainers 2 are arranged along the side walls 14 of the second housing 12, and each pair of the retainers 2 is aligned on two corresponding side walls 14. In this embodiment, the retainers 2 are arranged on the long side walls 141 of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and each retainer 2 is aligned with another retainer 2 on the opposite long side wall 141. In other words, the retainers 2 are arranged in pairs along the long side walls 141 of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12.

[0032] Each retainer 2 extends toward the internal receiving cavity of the tool box 100 on the long side wall 141, and is specifically configured as an arc-shaped groove. In a preferred embodiment, the groove of each retainer 2 is semicircular or arc-shaped. On each long side wall 141, a plurality of retainers 2 are arranged in a row. Preferably, the connection point of two adjacent retainers 2 forms a round convex point, that is, the end point of the arc-shaped groove protrudes into a round convex point.

[0033] The tool box 100 further includes at least one insert 3. The insert 3 is used to store screwdriver bits of different sizes or types. The insert 3 can be matched with a pair of retainers 2 to be pivotally connected to the pair of retainers 2, so that the insert 3 can be pivoted relative to the pair of retainers 2. And the insert 3 can be limited to a horizontal position, an upright position and an inclined position, so as to cooperate with different usage states.

[0034] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the insert 3 is a rectangular parallelepiped, and is divided into several compartments to form several receiving cavities 30, the receiving cavities 30 are used to store the blade, and the two ends of the insert 3 are respectively provided with a pivot shaft 31 and a limit assembly. The insert 3 extends along the short side wall 142, and the pivot shafts 31 at both ends of the insert 3 are respectively matched with the retainers 2 located on the long side walls 141 on both sides, that is, the pivot shaft 31 is inserted into the groove of the retainer 2, so that the insert 3 can be rotated to different positions with the pivot shaft 31 as the axis. Several retainers 2 are arranged in a continuous arrangement, so that the insert 3 can be freely arranged and assembled according to needs and preferences, which is more flexible.

[0035] The limiting assembly limits the insert core 3 to the horizontal position, the upright position and the inclined position. The insert core 3 has a comfortable damping feeling when rotating, and the user has a better use experience.

[0036] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, when the ferrule 3 is confined in a horizontal position, the ferrule 3 is placed flat on the bottom wall 13 of the first shell 11 or the second shell 12, and the blade received in the ferrule 3 is parallel to the bottom wall 13, that is, the ferrule 3 is stored in the internal receiving cavity of the tool box 100, and the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 can be snapped together and closed.

[0037] like Figure 6 As shown, the ferrule 3 is rotated 90° from the horizontal position to the upright position. When the ferrule 3 is limited to the upright position, the ferrule 3 is perpendicular to the bottom wall 13 of the first shell 11 or the second shell 12, and the blade accommodated in the ferrule 3 is perpendicular to the bottom wall 13. At this time, the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 cannot be buckled, but it is convenient to take and put the blade.

[0038] like Figure 8 As shown, preferably, in this embodiment, the insert 3 can be maintained at a 45° inclined position. The insert 3 can be rotated 45° from the horizontal position or 45° in the opposite direction from the upright position to the 45° inclined position. When the insert 3 is limited to the 45° inclined position, the blade head accommodated in the insert 3 and the bottom wall 13 form a roughly 45° angle, which also facilitates the removal of the blade head. In addition, relative to the upright position, in the 45° inclined position, the blade head will not be pointed directly at the user, thereby preventing the user from accidentally causing personal injury to the user by touching the blade head without seeing the position of the blade head.

[0039] Specifically, the limiting assembly includes a horizontal limiting member 32 and an upright limiting member 33. When the insert 3 is in the horizontal position, the horizontal limiting member 32 cooperates with the retainer 2. When the insert 3 is in the upright position, the upright limiting member 33 cooperates with another retainer 2. When the insert 3 is in the 45° inclined position, the horizontal limiting member 32 and the upright limiting member 33 abut against two retainers 2 respectively.

[0040] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 2 and 5As shown, the horizontal limiting member 32 and the vertical limiting member 33 have the same structure, both in the shape of a rod, and the ends of the rods have protrusions 320 and 330, respectively, and the protrusions 320 and 330 can cooperate with the retainer 2. That is, the protrusions 320 and 330 of the horizontal limiting member 32 and the vertical limiting member 33 can be inserted into the groove of the retainer 2, thereby limiting the position of the insert 3. The horizontal limiting member 32 and the vertical limiting member 33 are perpendicular to each other, and the protrusions 320 and 330 of the horizontal limiting member 32 and the vertical limiting member 33 are opposite. The pivot shaft 31 is between the horizontal limiting member 32 and the vertical limiting member 33.

[0041] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 5 , 7 As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the pivot shaft 31 of the ferrule 3 and the holder 2 that cooperates with it are the first holder 21, the left and right sides of the first holder 21 are respectively the second holder 22 and the third holder 23, the horizontal limiting member 32 cooperates with the second holder 22, and the vertical limiting member 33 cooperates with the third holder 23. A first round convex point 24 is formed between the first holder 21 and the second holder 22, and a second round convex point 25 is formed between the first holder 2 and the third holder 2.

[0042] The pivot shaft 31 of the ferrule 3 is inserted into the first holder 2, and the ferrule 3 can rotate with the pivot shaft 31 as the rotation axis. Figure 5 As shown, during the rotation process, the protrusion 320 of the horizontal limiter 32 interferes with the first round protrusion 24, and the user applies a greater force (greater than the force used to rotate the plug 3) to make the protrusion 320 of the horizontal limiter 32 pass over the first round protrusion 24 until the protrusion 320 of the horizontal limiter 32 is stuck in the groove of the second retainer 22. At this time, the plug 3 rotates to a horizontal position of 0°, and the plug 3 can be stably maintained in this position. If the user wants to flip the plug 3 out of the horizontal position, it is also necessary to apply a greater force so that the protrusion 320 of the horizontal limiter 32 can pass over the first round protrusion 24, and then the horizontal limiter 32 is out of the groove of the second retainer 22.

[0043] The user further rotates the ferrule 3 to a 45° tilted position. Fig. 9 As shown, at this time, the protrusions 320 and 330 of the horizontal limiting member 32 and the vertical limiting member 33 are respectively in contact with the first round protrusion 24 and the second round protrusion 25, so that the core 3 can be kept in this position stably and will not be driven to pivot due to the weight of the blade in the core 3.

[0044] The user further rotates the ferrule 3 to a 90° upright position. Figure 7As shown, the user applies a greater force to make the protrusion 330 of the upright limiting member 33 pass over the second round protrusion 25 and then snap into the groove of the third retainer 23, and the ferrule 3 remains stable in the upright position. Similarly, if the user wants to flip the ferrule 3 out of the upright position, he or she also has to apply a greater force to make the protrusion 330 of the upright limiting member 33 pass over the second round protrusion 25, and then make the upright limiting member 33 out of the groove of the third retainer 23.

[0045] The pivot shaft 31 of the insert 3 has a comfortable damping feeling and can be fixed in three positions: a horizontal position of 0°, a tilted position of 45°, and an upright position of 90°. The insert 3 can be stored in the horizontal position, and it is convenient for the user to take the blade in the insert 3 in the upright position. In addition, the tool box 100 also adds a 45° tilted position. The advantage is that the tilted position of 45° is convenient for the user to take the blade and is safer than the upright position, which can prevent the user from accidentally causing personal injury. For example, if the user does not pay attention to the blade when taking the blade, the blade may be scratched when the hand touches the blade at will. There is also a more serious situation: if the user falls from a height, if the insert 3 is in the upright position and the blade is placed vertically, it may poke a part of the user's body, but if it is placed at a tilt of 45°, firstly, the blade will not be directly inserted into the user's body part, and secondly, under the pressure of the user's body weight, the insert 3 can pass the tilted position and rotate to a position close to the horizontal, further reducing the risk.

[0046] Preferably, in this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, both ends of the ferrule 3 further include outwardly protruding abutting portions 34 , which abut against the corresponding side walls 14 , further enhancing the friction between the ferrule 3 and the side walls 14 and improving the position stability of the ferrule 3 .

[0047] The horizontal limiting member 32 and the upright limiting member 33 are formed by extending from the abutting portion 34 .

[0048] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present application. Although the present application has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the present application. Any technician familiar with the profession can make some changes or modify the technical contents disclosed above into equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present application. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present application without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present application still falls within the scope of the technical solution of the present application.
